Yo I'll tell you what I want, what I really want
So tell me what you want, what you really really want

So tell me what you want, what you really really want

Get your act together, we could be just fine

Make it last forever, friendship never ends
If you wanna be my lover you have got to give
Taking is too easy but that's the way it is

Say you can handle my love, are you for real? I won't be hasty, I'll give you a try
If you really bug me then I'll say goodbye
Yo I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want

You wanna get with me, you gotta listen carefully
We got em in the place who likes it in your face
